“That was a SLIME BALL HE THREW…he too is a piece of slime!!” Virginia Pierce posted.

Chris Pontani offered a more passive-agressive strike.

“Selig may fine/suspend him because he was dumb enough to admit doing it to the media,” he wrote.

Lynda Rothschild seized the opportunity to share her thought that Hamels’ actions are part of a much larger city-wide problem.

“Hamels acted like the rest of Philadelphia sports teams….animals!!!” she said.

Then there were some who take the ‘boys will be boys’ approach and chalk it up to just being part of the game.

“Anyone calling for disciplinary action can simply watch tape of the game: Hamels himself was later hit by a pitch. Harper took extra bases all night and stole home. The matter is settled. It was left on the field,” David McDaniel commented. He’s likely not a fan of Commissioner Bud Selig’s decision.

Then there was Christopher Holley who didn’t seem too concerned with the matter at all. And why would he be after this one: “Let’s go O’s, sorry Nats fans.”

What do you think? Was the suspension just or should MLB just let it be?
